• Abstract:
  Although the Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG), now called Pavement ME Design, is a signifi cant advancement ; in pavement design, it requires much more input from designers. Many data sets, such as weigh-in-motion (WIM) traffi c data, need to ; be pre-processed before use in the MEPDG procedure. In addition, MEPDG models were developed using nationwide data sets, and ; require local calibration. Therefore, it is critical to have a supporting database platform that is able to pre-process certain input data ; sets for both quality and format, and support the local calibration and implementation of Pavement ME Design.
